Many natural gas companies recommend that homeowners switch their oil or propane furnaces to natural gas. Natural gas is certainly more versatile than fuel oil or propane — you can use it to run your furnace, stove, washer and dryer, grill and other home appliances. However, there are significant tradeoffs to consider.

Natural gas is piped into your home from a gas supplier, in much the same way that city water is piped into many people’s homes. This means that you don’t have to remember to refill your oil or propane tank. (However, many oil and propane suppliers will automatically refill your tank when it runs low.) Here are a few more benefits:

  • Natural gas can burn more completely than fuel, which means that your furnace can be more efficient.
  • If you’re buying new equipment, the most efficient gas-burning furnaces are quite a bit more efficient than the most efficient oil-burning furnaces.
  • With oil and propane you often (though not always) pre-pay. With natural gas you typically pay a month after you’ve used the gas.
  • Natural gas companies often offer rebates to switch to gas — occasionally including a new gas furnace or boiler!
  • Most (84%) of the natural gas consumed in the United States is produced in the US. (source) Some commentators have suggested that this makes the cost of natural gas less volatile.
  • You may be able to heat your home more cheaply with natural gas. However, there are quite a few variables to be considered, so don’t assume that this is true.
